Description

I'd like to see WordUtils being able to capitalize given more word separator
characters than just white space, eg "Jean-Pierre". Currently it takes "jean-
pierre" and returns "Jean-pierre".

Maybe supply a list of additional separaters which should be treated as
indication of a new word, just like whitespace?

Something like :

capitalize(String str, char[] separaters)

used

capitalize("jean-pierre du pond", new char[]

{'-',' '}

);

would return "Jean-Pierre Du Pond".
